Heat and wind keep golfers off links

A few less players show up for this week’s tourney at Falcon Ridge Golf Club probably due to the heat and wind warnings. It didn’t seem to bother all of those that did show as the scores were very good. Capt. Ron (Nickle) once again proved he isn’t a one-week wonder as he won low gross with a smooth 81. He is the Jordan Spieth of the Falcon Ridge Golf Club these days. Winning a low net spot is tough as it takes a scorecard playoff to settle the places each week. First low net place went to Don Austin. Second place went to Mike Moreau. Scott Jones took third place. Fourth place went to Judy Nickle so good golf seems to runs in that family.

KP winners were Lee Sweat (hole #2), Ron Nickle (hole #8) and Judy Nickle (hole #14). Some familiar names won five skins this week; Stewart Jones ( hole#3), Ron Nickle (hole#8), Don Austin (hole#9), Terry Spriggs (hole#10) and Mike Moreau ( hole# 12).
Another fine day on the links made even better by fine treatment from Brian Wursten and the staff at Falcon Ridge Golf course.
